The Five Best Sports Films of All Time
Sports films bring out the emotions in everyone ” tears, anger, elation. These films bring us to life.
The underdog has always been a major subject in sports movies. One of these all time underdogs was “Rocky’. How many of us cried and cheered with Rocky Balboa? We traveled the road with him, from his beginnings to his triumphs to his downfalls and his return again.
“Hoosiers’ is another of the underdog films. In this movie we are dealing with a team, not an individual. You can still feel the pain and the glory for more than one.Didn-t catch that? This explains it.
As much as there is the seriousness in the sports arena, there is the comedy. One of the all time great comedic sports film has to be “Caddyshack’. Released over 30 years ago, this is one of those movies that can still be quoted and re-watched over and over.
Not quite a direct sports film, “Jerry Maguire’ introduced us to the business side of the sports world. The emotions are here too, but coming from a different angle.
For those who think sports is always about the money ” “Chariots of Fire’ is a must see. This is what makes a champion.
